Joseph....

Joseph….a beautiful story in the Bible about Pure Love Also as Yusuf mentioned in The Korán in one of the Soeras Reading about Joseph in the Bible this last time, I noted that this situation has a parallel in our life as Christians, we admit that we depend on God for our daily needs as well as for eternal life but we are also aware that we do not deserve his grace at all! We are all born sinners and have made things worse ever since by actively rejecting or disobeying God the case of Joseph's attitude toward his brothers is a beautiful picture of God's attitude toward repentant sinners He does not pay them back for what they did, but treats them like loved family members His blessings are not given according to the measure of our good works, but according to the measure of Christ's gift (Ephesians 4: 7) we thank God for His unconditional grace! © Sylvia Frances Chan - All Rights Reserved Saturday 17 Oct 2020
